Academic Policies

1. Each college, branch campus, and the Learning Center will designate an Academic Standards Officer who will be responsible for academic review and enforcement of standards.
2. An academic review is conducted at the end of each Fall and Spring semester.
   1. Students earning a 0.00 CGPA at the end of their first semester of full-time enrollment will be dismissed from the university.
   2. Other students falling below the 2.00 CGPA standard will be continued on probation for one semester and be required to develop and implement an Academic Recovery Plan.
   3. Students still below the 2.00 CGPA standard after a semester of probation are subject to dismissal. The Academic Standards Officer may grant one semester of extended probation to those who (1) made progress toward academic good standing while on probation or followed their approved Academic Recovery Plan, and (2) have a reasonable mathematical chance of reaching a 2.0 CGPA after one additional semester. Other probation students will be dismissed.
   4. Students still below the 2.00 CGPA standard after a semester of extended probation will be dismissed.
   5. Students who regain academic good standing but again fall below the 2.00 standard in a subsequent semester are awarded another semester of probation and, where appropriate, extended probation.
